#slpsowhite

The field of Speech Language Pathology is 95% white female. As a result, efforts to increase diversity in this discipline have been ongoing, yet somewhat unsuccessful. It is possible that issues surrounding the whiteness of SLPs could be better explored with open conversations about this matter. Is it a problem? Would more diversity improve patient care or training the next generation? Guests Jessica Forbes, MS, CCC-SLP and Anu Subramanian, Ph.D., CCC-SLP join hosts Alicia Vose and Ianessa Humbert in raucous, candid, controversial, and sometimes explicit, banter about being a white, brown, or other SLP in the field of Speech Language Pathology.
